Durst acquires Spanish cutting systems specialist

The printer manufacturer’s CEO and co-owner Christoph Gamper posted on Linkedin on 4 February that the business had “real engineering depth and market credibility”.

Hasler managing director and co-owner Marc Hasler, who Gamper described as “the driving force behind the business”, is staying on as part of the deal. “From the very first moment we met, it was obvious that we would work together. Shared values, shared standards, shared ambition,” said Gamper. “What started as a collaboration has now become something more. A Durst family story. Hasler Solutions remains independent and open to all customers. That is non-negotiable. At the same time, together we will take print and cut to an industrial level that the market expects and deserves. Scalable, robust, uncompromising in quality.”

He said there would be more to come at Fespa Global Print Expo, which is taking place in Barcelona from 19 to 22 May 2026.

Hasler also commented on LinkedIn: “Happy and proud that Hasler Solutions is now a member of the Durst family and looking forward to creating a ‘big’ future together.”

The Hasler Solutions range includes the 5.1m-wide Magna production cutter, available in various lengths between 2.5-m and 5.3-m, and with a cutting speed up to 120-m/min.
